I was inspired by the chain pizza places that have BBQ chicken pizza, so I thought I would try that in a pasta dish. You could use the prepared southwest seasoned chicken strips to save time. I hope you like this. This is my first submission. Ingredients:
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
1/4 cup fresh lime juice |
1/4 cup water |
1 tablespoon mccormick's montreal brand steak seasoning |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
3 teaspoons paprika |
1/4 cup olive oil |
2 tablespoons tomato paste |
1 1/2 cups italian dressing |
3 tablespoons barbecue sauce |
1 lb rotini pasta |
4 slices cooked crumbled bacon |
1 medium red onion |
0.5 (13 ounce) can black beans |
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated |
Directions:
1. Marinate chicken for 1 hour: Combine water and lime juice. Sprinkle chicken breast with steak seasoning, salt, and paprika. Lay chicken pieces in water and lime juice mixture, turn to coast, let marinate for 1 hour or more.
2. Grill Chicken until juice runs clear. Cool and cut into bite size pieces.
3. Prepare Good Seasons dressing and add tomato paste and BBQ sauce. Mix well.
4. Cook pasta according to package directions. Rinse.
5. Combine all ingredients, except for cheese. Allow to cool for 1 hour. Add grated cheddar cheese before serving.
